AttributeError: 'PandasExprVisitor' object has no attribute 'visit_Ellipsis'

When trying to run this code, I’m getting the above error. I worked with Max U from StackOverflow in a private chat and he concluded it was a bug.

Here is the stackoverflow link: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/43838557/custom-boolean-filtering-in-pandas

Here is my gitub which contains the data if you want to reproduce the error:

https://github.com/Moondra/Logistic-Regression-

The data can be found as a pickle under the label ‘Small_cap_bio_DF’ Just be sure to use the line df['Market Cap'][df['Market Cap'] =='N/A'] = '-1' to remove the N/A values.

The line producing the error is

df[pd.eval(df['Market Cap'].replace(['[Kk]','[Mm]','[Bb]'],['*10**3','*10**6','*10**9'], regex=True).add(' < 35*10**6'))]


df['Market Cap'] looks something like this


A      AAAP       1.66B
       ABEO     223.42M
       ABIO       22.5M

Problem description

Instead of filtering the dataframe in relation to its Marketcap, I’m getting an AttributeError.

Expected Output

Filtering all rows whose Marketcap value is less than 30M.

Output of pd.show_versions()

# Paste the output here pd.show_versions() here

We don’t want to support passing pandas objects to eval right? It takes a string, not a Series.

@chris-b1,

it’s a good reproducible example, thank you!

the limit seems to be 100 rows:

this works:

pd.eval(s.head(100))

the following produces mentioned above error:

pd.eval(s.head(101))
